Reflection

It is often too easy for average citizens to expect only coast dwellers to suffer from pollution on the ocean shores. However, the next generation of workers and rescuers from around the United States need a movement to launch their dreams on. In this video, I was hoping to connect the audience with the expectations of young children who do not know much about the current pollution situation. To see them describe a beautiful ocean while viewing images of a broken landscape is both tragic and heartbreaking. When we realize that the ocean affects everyone, and not just a certain group of people, it opens the doors to new realizations and possibilities. Now let’s #BeTheChange.
